About

55 years.

endless stories.

the mine is a series of passageways.  to new sounds, new stories, new ways of listening.

for each year from 1965–2019, the mine shares a playlist of global music, a hundred and one openings into other worlds. alongside each, a podcast telling stories of the music, where it's from, and the way it echoes through time.
